10. After that, go up to filter> distort> Polar coordinates and check the box that says Polar to Rectangle, then click ok.
11. Next duplicate your current layer (Layer> duplicate layer)
12. Select your new, duplicated layer and go up to Edit> Transform> Flip Vertically
13. Next, go up to Layer> LayerStyle> Blending options and change the blending option from normal to multiply.
14. Merge your two layers into one (ctrl+e)
15. Now, duplicate your merged layer by going to Layer> duplicate layer.
16. Select your duplicated layer and go to Edit> transform> rotate 90º CW. Now, go to Layer> Layer Style> blending options and change the blending option to either Multiply or Screen. Here are the two Different results you get with those blending options:
•Click Here for Multiply Result
•Click Here for Screen Result
And your done! From there you can crop it and use brushes to grunge it up even more.
